Here are 4 I just got back yesterday. Most I bought when silver was under 8$ an ounce and bulk.
1927m Australia shilling. (got in bulk silver purchase)
1786 Brazil 10R with 1809 20R Counterstamp (purchased long ago not for much)
1901 Straits 5 Cent (purchased in bulk silver lot)
1883 Sol with 1894 1/2 real C/S (Had this one a long time). One of my favorites. Not sure why PCGS put peso on label?

I too am a big fan of bulk silver lots. Especially direct from dealers who dont know world coins. Surprising how much low grade straits pieces can be found.
Why is the countermark given a details grade? It appears undamaged. Seems like the coin should be given a details grade (it has been "damaged" by a C/M) and the countermark an undamaged grade.
That shilling appears to be a great score if it simply came from a bag of silver sold by weight. The kind that will make shroom very jealous .
But I too think it's super cool. As to why it got an XF details grade, who are we to criticize the grading Gods?
